MARCHEX ACCELERATES REGULAR QUARTERLY DIVIDENDS FOR COMMON STOCK

Marchex, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHX) today announced that upon the recommendation and approval of the independent Special Committee of the Board, the company's Board of Directors has declared a regular quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.035 per share on its common stock for the first, second, third and fourth quarters of 2013 (totaling $0.14 per share) and is accelerating its payment of these dividends into the fourth quarter of 2012. Marchex will pay the dividends on December 31, 2012 to the holders of record as of the close of business on December 18, 2012. As of December 7, 2012, 9,570,382 shares of Class A common stock and 27,964,815 shares of Class B common stock are outstanding.

Marchex commenced the payment of a regular quarterly cash dividend on its common stock on February 15, 2007. In August 2012, the company increased its regular quarterly dividend from $0.02 to $.035 per share on its common stock. The company intends to pay a regular quarterly dividend, which it anticipates will be transferred from Marchex to Archeo following the proposed spin-off, at the discretion of the Board of Directors depending on available cash, anticipated cash needs, overall financial condition, future prospects for earnings and cash flows as well as other relevant factors.
